F*&% the Prom (2017)

Although this movie tends to not be for most people, it does however have a very interesting male lead. However most of the "popular" kids are completely cheesy and a little unrealistic. I do think this movie does a good job at showing people what life in high school can be like (dramatically of course). The male lead gives a very honest speech at the end of the movie that leaves an impact. Although this is certainly not my favorite movie and I'll probably never watch it again, there were benefits to watching it. So just give it a chance.

RELEASED IN 2017 and directed by Benny Fine, "F the Prom" is a campy high school dramedy about two inseparable neighbor-friends, Cole (Joel Courtney) and Maddy (Danielle Campbell), who separate when they enter high school wherein Cole is relentlessly teased while Maddy becomes the most popular girl. When they reunite two and a half years later, they scheme to destroy the Prom (the ultimate teen popularity contest) teamed with a ragtag gang of outcasts.There are a lot of 1 Star votes (out of 10) of this movie on IMDb, which is absurd. While this may be a low-budget teen flick, it's not THAT bad. Many of these critics lament how unrealistic the movie is, which is ridiculous in light of its campy tone. It would be like criticizing the 60's Batman TV show for being unrealistic. In other words, there's a lot of silliness and exaggerations in "F the Prom," but it's intentional. Underneath it all, the movie reflects several real-life issues, mostly pertaining to popularity and the drive to be liked. Others argue that the point is elusive and characters contradict themselves. No, the point(s) are obvious and some characters change their minds because they're fickle teens.This is a solid low-budget high school flick, but it's a little too talky for my tastes. And I guess the staple "gay" character is here to stay at this juncture, but the movie wins points for boldly illustrating that even gays have their cliques and shun those who don't conform.Campbell and Madelaine Petsch are solid on the female front, but the director could've showcased their beauty better (and I'm not talking about nudity). Meg DeLacy is intelligent & winsome as Stuft (aka City) and has a beautiful face, but needs to gain some curves.THE FILM RUNS 1 hour, 32 minutes and was shot in Southern Cal. WRITERS: The Fine Brothers and Molly Prather.GRADE: C

What the heck did I just watch I had never seen a youtuber movie with such bad writing horrible voice acting terrible life lesson morals tedious attempts at trying to even have humor like really I don't even know the plot of this movie that much due to it being so absolutely random like what even is this I freaking hate it the other youtube movies failed like Smosh or Fred But at least they failed at something that's too hard for them to make or edit it's a shame a movie like this it's like the workers on this film has an inability to even know what a film is suppose to be about like I could stare at a blank wall at least that's more interesting than watching whatever I just saw like the youtubers just stop at making these movies because they don't even have the skills and experience to even create something like this in the first place!

Oh, that was painful. I'm normally a fan of the Fine Bros, and I really dig their react shows. Unfortunately, thus was nowhere near that quality. The jokes fell flat, the characters were cardboard, the acting varies between elementary school level and puke-inducing, and there wasn't one thing that felt like actual high school material. The only redeemable parts were Danielle Campbell and Joe! Courtney's performances, although the ending was dizzying enough to make me hate that too. You'd be better off watching Batman and Robin again, or maybe pouring lemon juice into your eyes. Just.....don't watch this.
